hi people do any of you knowaf the best weel sise and offsets or know of any nice weels going cheep in the kent end thanks

I've just done some work for a friend on a Mk2 Clio, it failed on a bunch of things, including off side brake light out, and centre high level not working. Now, the centre high level is a sealed LED unit, which is 30 odd quid + VAT, if the other 2 brake lights are working, will it still fail? Is it a case of 'if it is there it has to be working'? Can I just take it out and leave a hole there for the MOT? Cover it up with gaffer tape? It's booked in for tomorrow, just wondering if it'll pass! Cheers, Tudor...

Its another rental property nightmare :cursing: I got a call from one of my tennants saying that her partner had lost it and tried to rape and kill her. Apparantly they had not been getting on very well and he had agreed to leave in a week or something when he came home drunk and tried to rape her. He then started smashing the place up, she managed to call the Police and run outside. The baby was inside the house and he was screaming at it while smashing stuff up. When the Police arrived he would not open it so they smashed the door down. I went out there and the double glazed door is ruined and there is a lot of damage to the property. I have Landlords b…

i was at work on thursday night in my lorry when i got stuck at an accident. 30 seconds earlier and i would have been head on with a 38ton lorry. i went along the road and there was a broken down megane with its hazzard lights on. 15 minutes later on way back had to hit the brakes as a 38ton lorry ploughed into the back of it! lorry driver was a :xxx: tried telling me not to say that the car had warning lights as he was in enough trouble already! he tried to say the car was moving without lights on! the couple who's car it was only had minor injuries but they were very lucky to be alive. YES I DID GRASS THE TRUCK DRIVER!! MY…

Took the kids down to the car today, so i could clean it out and also get my drivers side wheel, some what straight. Anyway, daughter is in the drivers seat and im working away, after, i decided that the roof needed to come off the car as the sun was out, while i cleaned it, then gave her a little start. while shes sat there on tick over, and im going around the car making sure all my bulbs are working, i hear my daughter "bruuuuum brummmmm", so i pop my head round the tail gate to see my daughter sitting in the drivers seat, steering wheel in hand, cant see over the horn button, realising the car is still running, i turned the key and took them out. only for her to…

For you guys 'n gals running newer cars as well you can monitor what your car is doing, to quite an elaborate extent, with not much more than your mobile phone!! For the iPhone/iPod Touch there is REV (http://www.devtoaster.com/products/rev/) which is available from The App Store and for you Android users there is Torque (there own web site is crap, but this'll give you the info http://www.subaruforester.org/vbulletin/f76/android-folks-who-uses-torque-obd-ii-readings-76604/) which is available from Android Market Place. Both of them work on a similar basis, basically displaying on your phone screen various (you decide which) readouts from your on-board OBDII dia…

With my Merc sadly written off long before it's time, it's been time to move on. Thought I'd try something different and got this 2 weeks ago. It's a Jaguar S-Type 2.5 V6 Sport. The wheels make interesting reading; 17" on 235 tyres! [ATTACH]58844[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]58845[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]58846[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]58847[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]58848[/ATTACH]

This is not stolen money and there are no dangers involved. I count on your understanding. Are people honest that gullible? lol

Hi Guys, As above, what i'm after is an insert to my left shoe/trainer/slipper whatever i wear. Due to already documented damage to sciatic nerve, my heel and sole area and especially inbetween, is VERY susceptible to pain if i tread on a pebble/stone even a pea (i must be a price (cess??) ) so i'm thinking, instead of wearing 6 pairs of socks, cushion soles and that insole that stops smells... if i had a flat rigid insert..size 9 left, it could prevent my problem. I have no access to machine tools/guillotines/material so i need the help of someone who does. suggestions on material etc will be gratefully rec'd. Material costs i can cover, Alcohol for …

If you are a lot brighter than me you might be able to help with this. As I live in a thatched cottage I am having terrible trouble getting planning for a new summerhouse. The long and short of it is that for my application they have refused roof shingles and so I am getting quotes for the following. A clay tiled roof and a thatched roof, the Thatcher has told me that he charges £9 per square foot and that you need to allow an extra foot for the over hang and an extra foot for the ridge. My question is this If you are trying to work out the cost for doing a roof 8M X 4M taking into account the extra for the pitch, ridge and overhang (plans here but of 6M…
